Saddened to learn of the passing of ⁦@millermountainl⁩. He had a gift for teaching and I owe a lot of my own professional growth to his courses on Udemy. Thanks, Mike! You will be missed but your legacy lives on 🙏

All the data in the world won’t help you when your people don’t know what to do with it. Or worse, don’t know how to even read it.

@FieldAgronomy21 It’s a concept that comes from this old essay, a highly recommended read: https://t.co/sv5VHkQKDe Basically every new project gets say 3 innovation tokens you can spend on something you haven’t used before. So say you use PHP, MySQL, and ✨ Rust ✨ . You’ve just used up 1 token.

Hey #gischat, does anyone remember a blog post someone wrote recently about some of the troubles with the Python geospatial stack? I remember something making the rounds but can’t seem to find it.

$42K max for a Mid-Senior level geospatial analyst? At least it’s remote…but only from Albuquerque, NM. Wild. #gisjobs #gischat

“Much like Dracula was undead and eternal…within these narratives HOLC redlining practices never morph or change. The maps that were created in the 1930s seem to have a permanent, trans-historical impact on the American metropolis…all the way up to the present day.”

My annual reminder that leaves are good for your grass and make for a healthier yard. No need to rake or blow them! Just leaf them be! If you do choose to remove them, PLEASE do not pile them on the sidewalk or in the bike lanes. https://t.co/JmQaKgYvZL

Autumn's bounty of fallen leaves isn't usually a problem for lawns and gardens; mulching the ground with them helps feed soil for a healthier yard.

@ArcGISDevs For now, my solution is to download the apidoc directory from the API's GitHub repo and throw it on a web server. Was kind of hoping there was a way to select a version like in the old docs. https://t.co/cvwWrAPuxY

Is there a way to view the docs for older versions of the ArcGIS Python API? I'm not seeing how you can do that on the new docs page. https://t.co/vcYMpn7xsy cc/ @ArcGISDevs #gischat

New blog post: Introducing "Chartographer", a tool for making detailed charts and visualizations of complex map stylesheets. It's one of the many techniques we've developed to help our cartography team work more efficiently and productively. Try it out! https://t.co/mlzr5ga06R

#KnowBeforeYouPro: if you don't need a layer after your current working session or if you're not sure the output is what you want (me, all the time), type "memory\potato" in the "Output Feature Class" box (*potato* can be any temp name, the important thing is memory\) #gischat

“Geography is the study of earth as the home of people.” We are sad to hear of Yi-Fu Tuan's passing at the age of 91. Geographer Yi-Fu Tuan's voice led the humanistic geography movement and transformed the way we think about place and space. We are grateful for his vision.

NOTE: I am specifically interested in ways to access gdal from the Python Command Prompt in the base Anaconda environment that comes with ArcGIS Pro. I know there are other ways to do this without. Those ways are not my current priority.

gdal comes with the base Anaconda Python environment in ArcGIS Pro, but when I run `gdalinfo --version` from the Python Command Prompt w/ the environment activated it returns an error. Any ideas how to access gdal/ogr directly from cmd in this env? #gischat

Happy #MappyMonday to everyone. Here’s another just for fun map, this one of the Mountains-to-Sea Trail in North Carolina. (The terminus elevations are those of the trailheads, not the high and low elevations.) #Map #gischat
